Abstract

Abstract:  This community service activity aimed to strengthen the spiritual identity of Catholic university students, deepen their understanding of their calling as Catholic Youth (Orang Muda Katolik/OMK), enhance their active involvement in church ministry, and cultivate a genuine spirit of evangelization. The program was carried out through a recollection activity employing the Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, guided by five successive stages: discovery, dream, design, define, and destiny, involving Catholic students from five universities across the city of Pontianak. The recollection proved fruitful in several meaningful ways. Participants gained a clearer and more heartfelt understanding of who they are as Catholic Youth. They also grew in awareness of the importance of being actively engaged in their church communities and felt a deeper sense of calling to serve others. Beyond that, a shared commitment emerged among participants to support one another in their faith journey, as well as a sincere resolve to proclaim the teachings of Christ, including through social media platforms. Overall, the ABCD-based recollection demonstrated its effectiveness as a spiritual formation model that is not only structured and contextual, but also deeply relevant and transformative for Catholic university students.Abstrak:  Pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk menguatkan jati diri spiritual mahasiswa Katolik, memperdalam pemahaman mereka akan panggilan hidup sebagai Orang Muda Katolik (OMK), meningkatkan keterlibatan dalam pelayanan gerejawi, serta menumbuhkan semangat evangelisasi.

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of preparedness, self-confidence, and willingness to communicate (WTC) on public speaking among 52 first-semester EFL students at STAKatN Pontianak. Utilizing a correlational design, the results indicate that both preparedness and self-confidence significantly drove WTC. Specifically, preparedness—encompassing communicative competence and affective readiness—enables oral production through situational preparedness, while self-confidence reduces anxiety and enhances perceived ability across classroom and digital settings. Together, these factors create a reciprocal cycle: they diminish avoidance behaviors and foster positive emotional states like grit, leading to long-term fluency gains. Practically, these findings suggest that educators should prioritize "psychological scaffolding"—such as pre-task planning and anxiety-reduction activities—to boost students' vocal participation. However, the study is limited by its small, localized sample size and its reliance on self-reported data, which may not fully capture spontaneous speaking behavior outside the classroom. Future research should incorporate longitudinal observations to determine if these psychological traits consistently translate into sustained proficiency in professional, non-academic environments.
